A photograph of a seated man in an ornate golden throne with carved lion heads at its sides, framed by a cream arch with floral gold scrollwork and dark maroon velvet drapes hung with multicoloured tassels. He wears a rust-orange turban with a green jewel, a rust-orange cloth wrap over his bare torso, and a long pink and white flower garland falling to his knees, along with beaded rudraksha-style malas and gold bangles. He sits with one arm resting on a red cushion and smiles. Appearance-based label: a person, seated in the role of the presiding teacher on the throne.
